While I don't have any specific complaints for DVC, side by side Marriott and Bluegreen have treated me better in general and for service and attention while during a stay, DVC falls FAR behind consistently. If there's something not in the unit and you call DVC, they schedule it on round and you're lucky if you get it in a hour. For any other timeshare I can recall, it's there in 10-15 minutes with a follow up phone call to make sure it made it and all is in order. Here are a few examples. At Grande Ocean a couple of years ago we had an entire stove top that went out in one of our units. It wasn't a big deal but they had to secure another, took 2-3 hours total. Even though we kept assuring them it wasn't an issue (had 6 other units, didn't need it at the moment) they kept apologizing and ent a bottle of wine as well as several follow up phone calls. Same trip one of our group posted a review on facebook about how great the resort was, the resort staff saw it and send a gift basket. At the Aruba Surf Club last trip 3 years ago the AC in the studio side went out. They worked for hours but couldn't get it fixed, set up a portable unit without being asked (work great BTW) and came back the next morning and spent hours more including the supervisor coming in on his day off (either Saturday or Sunday). The only complaint I can think of with Marriott wasn't service but rather the resort itself, KBC. Marriott also does much better and is more consistent with villa assignments while DVC has changed checkin from 4 pm till "after 4 pm) and taken away any system structure for assignment when it used to be by when the reservation was made.I think DVC is one of the best timeshare companies due to customer service. For example, I bought 2 discounted annual passes for children we were planning to adopt but it fell through. When I arrived at the park, they gave us a full refund on the annual passes even though they are non refundable. At Animal Kingdom Lodge, they gave us a $85 lunch credit at the restaurant of our choice simple because the front desk person told us at 9 am that our room would be ready by 12 noon, and it was not ready. They did not need to do that since check in is not until 4 pm. I have more positive stories than negative stories with DVC. I know there are many DVC haters on TUG because it is so expensive. I think unless you are a DVC member, it is hard to understand the benefits. Exchangers are probably not treated the same way as members.
